Biography
Muawia joined the al-Nusra Front, the al-Qaeda affiliate in Syria, and he led some of their fighters during the Syrian Civil War. In late 2015, he commanded the al-Nusra Front fighters during the siege of Abu al-Duhur Airbase and saw its liberation from the Syrian Arab Army. A VICE News documentary showed him interrogating a captured Sunni soldier in the Syrian Air Force and an Alawite officer, and he asked them if they realized that they were a part of a government at war with Islam and killing civilians. They were presumably killed in the same fashion was the prisoners that the Turkestan Islamic Party held.
